“HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT MAX?” Please visit this Facebook page to see how you can support Christopher Maxwell, the founder of Richmond’s community radio station WRIR. Max is facing severe health and financial problems. An FB page has been set up to help him meet these challenges. Note: From 2005 through 2013, Defender Ana Edwards hosted the WRIR program “Defenders Live!” which would not have existed if it weren’t for Max’s selfless work. https://www.facebook.com/events/1681600028780988
